To reverse Intermediate Cycle to positive S&P 500 would need to rally above upper edge of 10-Week Price Channel (1456.37 through November 30). Major resistance and point to overcome to re-assert long-term uptrend in S&P 500 remains at 1474.51 created September 14.

Daily CPFL was positive Monday by 2.55 to 1. Daily CPFL Ratio was moving higher, but remains “Oversold” at .74.

Market Overview – What We Think:

While short-term trend has reversed to positive, but continuing low volume, and elimination of recently “Oversold” short-term stats could lead to short-term top sooner than later.

We suspect any further strength will prove to be unsustainable longer-term and will not cause the larger Intermediate Cycle to reverse to positive.

Updraft in Daily MAAD Ratio is yet another indication strength since November 16 could prove to be nothing but failed reflex rally.

“Neutral” to “Overbought” conditions in our key indicators ought to develop relatively quickly and price movement should only retrace a portion of decline since mid-September.

Ultimately, extent to which September/October highs (1474.51—S&P 500) are seriously challenged will determine whether or not strength is merely a brief upside feint in Intermediate Cycle negative, or if it will develop into full-fledged intermediate reversal to positive.

How price movement plays out will determine status of Major Cycle uptrend in effect since March 2009.
